Abstract
- Objective: To investigate the influence of timing, operative method and perioperative sequence treatment on the therapeutic effect of one-staged correction of lip and nose deformities in complete unilateral cleft lip.<br />Methods: Seventy-six patients with unilateral complete cleft lip, aged from 3 to 12 months, underwent one-staged correction of lip and nose deformities, based on the Salyer, Noordhoff method. Sequence treatment was performed before and after operation.<br />Results: The patients were followed up for 3 months to 20 years with excellent results in 39 cases (51.3%), good in 33 patients (43.4%), unsatisfied in 4 patients (5.3%).<br />Conclusions: Good results can be achieved when the one-staged correction of lip and nose deformities, combined with perioperative sequence treatment, is performed. The operative technique of plastic surgeon or maxillofacial surgeon is also important for less morbidity and scar.
